No to Rice catching again.Cashman seriously needs to look at MLB standings and find a right handed hitting catcher off the roster of one of the bottom 5/6 teams.
Maybe someone like Susac from the Giants?
Last resort...let Rice catch and get a left handed hitting 1B to platoon with Goldy?
Maybe right with Rice, but the catching situation is untenable in it's current state.No to Rice catching again.
Wasn't it not that long ago when everyone was raving about all of the quality catching that the Yankees had in their system ?
Anyway, nice sweep in Cleveland. Still wondering what Volpe is doing in the starting lineup. And what they figure they're gonna do with Stanton when he returns.
They need Volpe until Judge comes back. Caballero is important to provide starting and outfield depth. Once he can go back to the infield full time, Volpe will end up in the minors.No to Rice catching again.

Volpe should be DFA'ed. Complete bust.They need Volpe until Judge comes back. Caballero is important to provide starting and outfield depth. Once he can go back to the infield full time, Volpe will end up in the minors.
The quality catchers were all traded away or fizzled out. Augustin Ramirez was the biggest miss as he's been really good when healthy with the Marlins.
Even though Volpe is local— I wonder if NYC just is not the place for him. Too much talent to be doing this poorly.They need Volpe until Judge comes back. Caballero is important to provide starting and outfield depth. Once he can go back to the infield full time, Volpe will end up in the minors.

Yeah. He needs a change of scenery. I'm not seeing the talent he displayed earlier in his career...with the bat, the glove, or on the base paths. Lombard will be up soon enough to take the shortstop job anyway.Even though Volpe is local— I wonder if NYC just is not the place for him. Too much talent to be doing this poorly.
Gotta stretch out these heater as long as possible until Judge is able to come back and anchor the lineup.Offense really rolling against the White Sox. Goldschmidt and Bellinger are on fire.
Hill was just as irritating, coming into a 1-1 game and hitting the first two batters he faced. These guys and most of the bullpen had plenty of rest prior to tonight's game. Fat lot of good it did the team.Someone, anyone, tell me why Dotel is still on this roster.
TIA
I got a kick out of your post because it's a total Freudian slip. Who's worse, Dotel or Doval? Both suck pretty equally in my view.Someone, anyone, tell me why Dotel is still on this roster.

Fricken "autocorrect".I got a kick out of your post because it's a total Freudian slip. Who's worse, Dotel or Doval? Both suck pretty equally in my view.
Speaking of garbage, the entire AL blows except for TB and probably the Yanks. Will the Yanks back into another WS and then get embarrassed again? Very possible.I got a kick out of your post because it's a total Freudian slip. Who's worse, Dotel or Doval? Both suck pretty equally in my view.
I expect a WS appearance also.Speaking of garbage, the entire AL blows except for TB and probably the Yanks. Will the Yanks back into another WS and then get embarrassed again? Very possible.
+1I expect a WS appearance also.
But the bottom half of the current lineup is so horrible that the NYY would be lucky to not get swept.
Too many leaks to plug.
Well fortunately for them, they only have to play one of them.+1
Most decent NL teams will pummel the Yanks.
Make that five games with three hits or less!Four straight games with only three hits for the Yankees.
I don't think I've ever seen such incredibly weak offensive production for four games in a row from the Bronx Bombers.
